Look, the fact they put him under conservatorship rather than adopting him means I don’t give a shit what they say. That mere fact shows they didn’t see him as their son and they were in no hurry to correct that.
And given how much that movie made $138K is shockingly just a pittance. It’s his story, not theirs. And they had him use a family friend as his agent while they used an actual agent if I’m remembering correctly when it came to this movie.
Did you watchtl the movie? It was more about the mom than anything. Also, with movies it's a complete fool's errand to look at the end result profits and determine if the deal signed was unjust to anyone, that's how contracts work in every field of business where the outcome is unknown, it's a gamble on the movie producer's part as well. You are ignorant of what people are typically paid for their rights to a story, what he was paid, and each of the family as well which was the same amount, was actually an overpay when compared to what's typical. These are objective facts, some people appreciate them, others don't as many have clearly illustrated.
